I hope everyone is just as angry with that groundhog as I am. I think Punxsutawney Phil should seriously reconsider his career choice. Well, at any rate, the warm weather IS coming I am led to believe, so I’ll keep my head up and my Neti Pot handy! This year has started off very [...]

Holiday cheer, vacations, and fire
December 3, 2012 By
Brrr it’s cold out there! Well, the nighttime anyway (What’s up with the 70 degrees in December??) But that is not an excuse to keep your hair jacket on. Do not use your fuzz as warmth – get a thermal for crying out loud! Happy December to you! I hope Thanksgiving went well [...]
